Gosh, not so long ago in the DHBC, riding an old steel bike would warrant some 'dirty' looks and odd glances from some fellow riders. We've come a long way. And all the better for it too. I beg to differ. Back to a time prior, it was CF bikes that get the dirty look. The in-bikes were steel and typ...

Good write up Marc. So I'm gathering that the iteration of a different versions of the jersey on a regular basis started in 2008. I note that the 2008 version, which there was only 20 produced is the one above the front wheel in that photo. Surely we had more than 20 of that version. I recall we ha...

On the claim that a cyclist being fined whilst track standing, which first came out a few days ago and spread across cycling centric social media accounts like wild fire. No confirmation of the episode came through in the first 24 hrs despite many requests from media participants and I have heard no...

Alfred St to the north of Burton is actually not an issue as the participant marshalling area is to the south of Burton on Alfred. So it's a clear run up Alfred from Burton, where the start line is located. As said, it's best to just go on the east side for the morning. Also note, there are various ...

Been involved in the Running Festival for a number of years and again this year. I can inform that, 1) The SHB will be open throughout the event, as us event riders use it to get to the start line marshalling area. 2) The west side of the bridge (Alfred St) at Milsons Point will be barriered off and...

Have you seen this spray on solution by... ahem... a car company synonymous for their 'safety record'. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CfWzeGlaFvI Unfortunately it doesn't work that well in real life (there are other clips on their use). Don't waste your money. Speaking from a driver's perspective ...

$500 won't get you anything worthwhile from an upgrade perspective. Further, lightness and commuter durability are contradictory. So, best to smile at your present Most and try to ride it to the ground. Unless it breaks or becomes unreliable, just recognise it's about the rider.

Will look into it when I get back to my desk. There's a better than even chance that I at least have something. There's a possibility that Nalini holds the production files though by memory. Will get back to you soon.

The Neutral Bay accident was that of a rogue cyclist who rode on the footpath without helmet and crossed an intersection against red pedestrian light at speed. So many of those knee jerk, electorate pacifying politician statements are way off the mark. Not worth losing sleep over.

W/kg reference is based on one's physical weight, not with the bike. The sad thing about knowing one's peak FTP is that one suddenly realises how far one is from the pros. I found that out 6-7 years ago. Utterly depressing! PS. Calibration on exercise bikes are generally poor. http://i167.photobucke...

The licensing idea is so stupid that's not even worth taking serious note of. Clearly one of those off the cuff comment geared for certain segments of the electorate. The key word is "consider". It won't come to anything as it's way too expensive to administer and impossible to police.

Spotted in CP around 7:00 am an unidentified DHBC liveried rider overtaking Nick and I as we battled the wind and rising heart rates! That was me I think. Greetings and Merry X'mas! I was chatting with a fellow rider and didn't get a chance to slow down and greet. Next time. You guys rode in style!...

Gerry brings a lot of corporate experience, a passion for cycling and a willingness to lead needed change. I'm really looking forward to working with him. I have no doubt about that along with his passion shown to date. However, when big business dollar contracts are involved, that's a completely d...

I read there's mixed reactions out there to the appointment of Gerry Ryan (Owner of Orica GreenEdge, significant financial stakes in TdU and Herald Sun Tour) to the post. Concerns have been raised in relation to the potential for conflict of interest amongst other financial deals. Did the board cons...

In years gone by, DHBC riders have done the same Sun ride. But that was in days when the club and bunches were much much smaller. So yes, nothing stopping anyone from riding down to Waterfall and back. Just go ahead of the Gong riders.

To install the 11 speed chain, you'll need a compatible chain tool. Old Campag 10 speed chain tool will not work, at least not be able to reliably engage the pin. A safety issue, not worth thinking about it. The BB tool I have should you need to borrow it. Not sure if it's compatible with Shimano bu...

I was circling and then circled some more after the group left as I usually ride back home through the city/Anzac Br. CP is sufficiently big at 3.8km that it takes quite a bit of speed differential to be able to cross path. Next week then!

Jonathon is my guess? Doesn't ride with us too often these days as he lives in the East. Commutes on a Jamis, does his epic rides on a BMC. Ok, thanks. Given the Wed and timing, I thought he was coming back from the LaPa ride in glorious DHBC colours. Will see how accurately he can time his ride ne...

Don't worry about leaving me behind at the lights Eleri, I had a mongrel of time remounting after talking to you on George St. Ha! Could only be you! Have you been keeping up with the Spring Cycle every year? That would be an impressive run! Did you do the extra 50km on the 10 laps crit circuit too...

I'm not keen on seeing fields of clones, but I do like the idea that we all start from roughly the same place and have roughly the same potential You should also remember that even with open doping and genetic interventions, we all still won't be equals. People's biology respond differently to the ...

Whilst we have little choice in the genes we were given by our parents, that's but one aspect of superior performance. To get to the top, it also takes opportunities and hard work. Without hard work, no amount of genes and mutation can take a rider to the very top. At the very elite level, it also t...

Right on! what would be the point of just covers? When it rains, it blows and any spray would lead to the cancellation of track activities. So logic dictates it's either open or fully enclosed. Google search seems to support the same.

...if those project home can be built for a couple hundred grand surely they can build a box over a 250m track you would think? This is hardly a project home is it? No cheap/unlicensed tradies allowed. It'll need to be custom designed, individual components custom manufactured, insurance, construct...

[quote="Eleri"]So keep talking and riding around in club kit - seems to be working![/quote] Absolutely. Recall the number of times where enquiries were made about the club whilst I was out on a ride, this is definitely the primary referral source. Behave well on the road and chit chat whis...

I know it's taboo to mention triathlons around here but I can't see a smart phone taking the place of a product like the Forerunner in the near future. Waterproofing, mobility all considerations... You can go for Google Glass though. http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-lQ1macZhY88/UUERTcuBf8I/AAAAAAAAArU/esH...

I find my iPhone is much more reliable from a GPS point of view than the Garmin. However, it obviously doesn't record heart rate and cadence which is where the Garmin comes in. iPhone is fast for localisation as long as it has access to aGPS (ie. Within mobile coverage area), otherwise its GPS perf...

Some phones have a built in GPS unit (some Android devices) but the iPhone uses triangulation to have a 'best guess' at the location of the phone. The accuracy of triangulation depends on the number of mobile network cells that the phone can access. That's not quite correct. Current top end smartph...

The safe route from Haberfield to USYD should obviously be via the bike path along Bay Run/Canal and onto Lilyfield Rd. Then go via Booth St, Annandale and onto RPAH etc. The law faculty is now next to Fisher Library. Leichhardt along Marion St has too much motor traffic for a comfortable commute.

Just curious, aren't all these observations the same requirement for all bunches, from Slowies to Fasties? Has riders not learnt all these bunch riding basics during their progression through the bunches? Something amiss?

I have the Park Tools model and all the cable cuts it made have been clean and square. Crimper works well. What it does badly is in the cutting of cable sheaths. It's never square and invariably the ends need to be filed and cleaned up. Yet, given the design of those sheaths, I don't think any of th...

Given that being quick on the Internet does not necessarily equate with being fast on the bike, the present registration demand may have inadvertently eliminated some real contenders. It's good for those who got in. Good luck boys and girls!

In my experience, ringing your bell makes not one bit of difference to Sydney pedestrians. Actually, I prefer pedestrians to "ignore" and hold their line. Unless they are completely obstructing, I am in total control when I plan and ride my way around them. Predictability is an important ...

From some years back, I recall the remark of a local Illawarra rider in my bunch some 15mins into the race. He tried to motivate everyone to work together and demanded an average speed of 38km/h to stay ahead and win the race. My jaw dropped... It was still fun though.

Interested in how you are going to reach Sublime Point Lookout via RNP? AFAIK there are no quiet roads to access that point. It's either up Bulli Pass or straight down Princess Hwy from Waterfall. If you go via RNP at Otford/Stanwell Park, then you'll need to loop back to Princess Hwy via Stanwell T...

Isn't that the section with the tunnel coming up along with multiple slipways left and right. I recall for that section, the only logical and safe lane to take is the centre one. Not pleasant but the only option.

1) The association of the two articles makes me think there's a significant marketing component in the first article. 2) Anyone who has carbon wheels surely would also have at least a set of regular alloy wheels in the stable. It's a matter of choosing the right set of wheels for the circumstance. N...

How about Campagnolo? For 10/11 speed chain pins at least, they are not designed to be re-used. Use a replacement pin or more properly, put in a chain link section to avoid using the same link. To me, reliability of the chain is absolutely critical. One of those safety items on the bike that must n...

To add, my non-prescription Rudy Rydon with photochromic lens has endured since 2007 with it once being partially run over by a following car (the last time I tried popping my sunglasses up on my helmet). The photochromic lens doesn't transition to the same range as before, an expected natural aging...

My ophthalmologist buddy chose Rudy Project Rydon for his prescription sports sunglasses and guess that says something. At the same time, you really need to try them out yourself for fit reasons. A sub-ideal fitting frame will invariably compromise its optical functionalities and peripheral vision w...

Daylight saving ends this Sun and you shouldn't need lights at 6am. Are you sure? My employer, the NSW Govt, has a differing view: "Daylight Saving will end again in New South Wales on Sunday 7 April 2013 at 3:00 am, when clocks are put back one hour." Oh! I was going with what's on my el...
